						<description><![CDATA[Important information- New State Law!<br><br><br>Beginning in September a new State law requires students entering 7th through 12th grades to have an adolescent whooping cough booster shot, Tdap, before they will be allowed to start school.  The Tdap booster shot given after the age of 7 will meet this requirement. <br><br>We encourage you to contact your child’s doctor to schedule an immunization appointment if your child has not already received the Tdap booster.    <br><br>If your child has received the Tdap booster, please bring proof of immunization to the school health office now. <br><br>Beat the rush! Get your Tdap Now! Health offices will accept proof until the last day of school and again at registration. <br><br>Information about the new State law is available on the district website along with information about free clinics for qualified families.  The website is www.pylusd.org.<br>]]></description>

						<description><![CDATA[<br><br><br><br><br><br>Dear Parent: <br><br>The California Constitution requires that public education be provided to students free of charge, unless a charge is specifically authorized by law for a particular program or activity. Therefore, the Placentia-Yorba Linda Unified School District may not charge fees for school programs and extracurricular activities, except for those programs or activities where a fee is specifically authorized by law. <br><br>The law does allow school districts to request voluntary donations and engage in fundraising activities and programs. These donations and fundraising financial contributions are voluntary, and all students will be allowed to participate in school activities and extracurricular activities regardless of whether the parent or legal guardian makes a donation or contribution. <br>The fees, charges, and deposits that are legally authorized by law are as follows: <br><br>• Charges for optional attendance as a spectator at a school or District sponsored activity.1 <br><br>• Charges for food served to students, subject to free and reduced price meal program eligibility and other restrictions specified in law.2 <br><br>• Paying the replacement cost for District books or supplies loaned to a student that the student fails to return or that is willfully cut, defaced or otherwise injured, up to an amount not to exceed $10,000.3 <br><br>• Fees for field trips and excursions in connection with courses of instruction or school related social, educational, cultural, athletic, or school band activities, as long as no student is prevented from making the field trip or excursion because of lack of sufficient funds.4 <br><br>• Medical or hospital insurance for field trips that is made available by the school district.5 <br><br>• Charges for required medical and accident insurance for athletic team members, so long as there is a waiver for financial hardship.6 <br><br>Charges for standardized physical education attire of a particular color and design, but the school may not mandate that the attire be purchased from the school and no physical education grade of a student may be impacted based on the failure to wear standardized apparel “arising from circumstances beyond the control” of the student.7 <br><br>• Charges for the parking of vehicles on school grounds.8 <br><br>• Charges for the rental or lease of personal property needed for District purposes, such as caps and gowns for graduation ceremonies.9 <br><br>• Fees for school camp programs, so long as no student is denied the opportunity to participate because of nonpayment of the fee.10 <br><br>• Reimbursement for the direct cost of materials provided to a student for property the student has fabricated from such materials for his/her own possession and use, such as wood shop, art, or sewing projects kept by the student.11 <br><br>• Reimbursement for the actual cost of duplicating public records, student records, or a prospectus of the school curriculum.12 <br><br>• Fees for transportation to and from school, and transportation between school and regional occupational centers, programs or classes, as long as the fee does not exceed the statewide average nonsubsidized cost per student and provided there is a waiver provision based on financial need.13 <br><br>• Fees for transportation of pupils to places of summer employment.14 <br><br>• Tuition fees charged to pupils whose parents are actual and legal residents of an adjacent foreign country or an adjacent state.15 <br><br>• Tuition fees collected from foreign students attending a District school pursuant to an F-1 visa, equal to the full unsubsidized per capita cost of providing education during the period of attendance.16 <br><br><br>• Fees for an optional fingerprinting program for kindergarten or other newly enrolled students, if the fee does not exceed the actual costs associated with the program.17 <br><br>• Fees for community classes in civic, vocational, literacy, health, homemaking, and technical and general education, not to exceed the cost of maintaining the community classes.18 <br><br>• Deposits for band instruments, music, uniforms and other regalia which school band members take on excursions to foreign countries.19 <br><br>• Charges for eye safety devices, at a price not to exceed the district's actual costs, in specified courses or activities in which students are engaged in, or are observing, an activity or the use of hazardous substances likely to cause injury to the eyes.20 <br><br>Pursuant to Education Code section 35330, a school district may charge a fee for a field trip. However, no student may be prevented from making the field trip because of the lack of sufficient funds. Therefore, each of our schools will coordinate efforts by community service groups to supply funds for pupils in need. <br><br>Pursuant to Education Code section 35335, a school district may charge a fee for school camp programs or outdoor science programs provided that the payment is not mandatory and no student is denied the opportunity to participate in the outdoor science program because of nonpayment of the fee. Each school will engage in fundraising activities and request donations and coordinate the efforts of community service groups to ensure that all students will have the funds available to participate in school camp programs and outdoor science programs. <br><br>If you have any additional questions, please do not hesitate to contact us. <br><br>Respectfully, <br><br><br><br>Minerva Gandara<br>Principal<br><br><br>7 Education Code section 49066(c) 8 Vehicle Code section 2113. 9 Education Code section 38119.        10 Education Code section 35335. 11 Education Code section 17551. 12 Government Code section 6253; Education Code section 49091.14. 13 Education Code section 39807.5.14 Education Code section 39837. 15 Education Code section 48050-52. 16 8 U.S.C.
